Invisalign
Invisalign is a great option for both adults and teenagers. In fact, Invisalign has a product created specifically for teenagers — Invisalign Teen. If your teenager needs to have crooked teeth or other dental flaws corrected, call our office and schedule an appointment to discuss Invisalign Teen.
To clean your Invisalign aligners, you remove them and then rinse them with warm water and a cleanser designed for Invisalign, which your dentist will provide. Never rinse your aligners with hot water because this can cause them to warp. You should also avoid brushing them with a regular toothbrush and toothpaste because these are abrasive and can damage the surface of the aligner.
Invisalign has a number of advantages over traditional braces:
- Invisalign is practically invisible.
- Invisalign can be cleaned quickly and easily.
- No wires need to be tightened.
- You have fewer visits to the dentist.
- You remove the aligners to eat, so Invisalign doesn't limit the foods you can enjoy.
